A really tricky apprentice handicap closes out the card and although none of these jump off the page BROUGHTONS PARADIS shaped well on her first run as a three year old and hold our confidence ahead of Cherry Belle and Miss Mojito. Connections may have sets their sights on the high side with the selection last term and she seemed to benefit for stepping down into this class last time out. That was her first run after a break so she should be able to build on that despite a step down in trip. Cherry Belle looks to be back racing off a competitive mark and should go well along with Miss Mojito, who should find conditions more to her likely this time than during her last effort. Mystic Touch showed some ability in his first two starts but has been disappointing since however the drop down in trip should see this one in a better light on his second handicap start. This isn't a race to get too heavily involved in with Broughtons Paradis marginally looking the pick.
